Ingredients

  • Ingredients:

  • 4 courgette flowers

  • 250g Meadow Field goat’s cheese (or other good quality goat’s/sheep cheese)

  • 2 tsp local honey

  • Tempura Batter:

  • 200g rice flour

  • 20g corn flour

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • cold sparkling water

Method

  1. First make the tempura batter. Mix the dry ingredients with a little water, it should be a thickish consistency (can be used immediately).

  2. Dip the courgette flowers in boiling water for a couple of seconds to soften - dry on a tea towel. Crumble the cheese and half fill each courgette flower. Seal the ends. Place the courgette flowers into seasoned flour, then dip into the tempura batter. Deep-fry at 190°C for 1 minute. Drizzle with honey and serve.
